The guard who was away from his post at Newark Airport when a graduate student ducked into a secured area was notified today of his discipline, a Transportation Security Administration official said today.

The federal agency, which has not named the guard, would not release details of the disciplinary action, saying it is a protected personnel matter, but confirmed the guard will be back on the job.

From the comments:

I worked with the TSA for almost a year. Most of the employees had good intentions but there were many who could barely put two words together to make a sentence. I was in a supervisory position and I couldn't believe some of the people that were hired. I had to get out of there.
